Hah, do you think Trump can admit he messed up and change course?


Depends on which of his various manipulators are most effective.


Still Putin.


Sort of, but it won't be framed that way. It will just be "we achieved our objectives and we're moving on"


It will be filed away next to the built a wall that Mexico paid for victory.


He actually sort of has? In a way.

When he failed to "repeal and replace" the Affordable Care Act on "day 1", he goes on the stage a month later and says "Nobody knew that healthcare could be so complicated" [1]. I found this immensely funny, because pretty much every human other than Donald Trump knew that healthcare policy was really complicated, and many people tried telling him this.

I'm hoping he goes on stage soon enough and says "no one knew how volatile tariffs could make the economy" or something. Though "volatile" might be too big of a word for him.

If the Manhattan real estate market tanks he may change course. If it doesn't affect him, he's probably not going to care.

If he does change course, he's unlikely to call it a mistake. Politicians rarely admit mistakes.


Yes after he and his friends sell their positions. Edit: I think I meant secure..


He will save us from the tariffs......that he created.


How did he mess up? His goal is to screw up the real economy and sell $Melania coins.
